Washington, Oct. 12. While President Wilson is believed by his physicians to be on the road to re covery, the process will be slow and tedious. The president, it was re iterated today at the White House, must resign himself to strict observ ance of the physicians' orders to put aside all thought of his office while convalescing, and remain in bed un til danger of a relapse has passed. Rear Admiral Grayson, the presi dent's personal physician, and the" physicians he called in more than a week ago, continue to. confine them selves to terse bulletins twice a day, as far as the public is concerned. That they are satisfied with the progress their patient is making is apparent from the spirit of opti mism that pervades the White House and the resentment with which various rumors as to the president's "real" condition are met by White House officials. Sunday's Bulletin. Today's bulletin said: . N "White House, October 12, 11:30 a.-ni. ', '.'There-' is no . notable change in the president's condition. ' He had a good night. ; V v (Signed) "GRAYSON, "RUFFIN, "STITT." The president was said by officials to have spent a quiet and restful Sunday, although somewhat de pressed because of a drizzling rain, which began to fall during thenight and continued all day. ' ' Mrs. Wilson again spent a part of the day reading to him, as has been her daily custom since his illness, and strains from the talking ma chine in the sick room could be heard at intervals. , Dr. Grayson and the other physi cians have adopted a policy of "standing pat" on their bulletins, and will not even comment upon the daily crop of rumors concern ing the president that spring up overnight. . Wilson in Good Spirits. Tonight's bulletin said: "White House, October 12 (10 p. ): . . , "The president is in good spirits and has had a restful day. (Signed). "GRAYSON." Dr. Grayson said today he would not comment on the published letter written by Senator Moses of New Hampshire to a constituent saying that the president had a brain lesion. Dr. Gravsen explained that he would not dc" the statement because he would not depart from his policy of standing on his- official bulletins and refusing to discuss the president's case further than the information contained in the bulletins. Senator Moses said tonight that he had written the letter in response to a request for information and that 'ie merely had referred to the president's disability. as had been re ported to him. The senator added that he had not written the letter for publication. v Three More Murders Occur in Chicago; Two Beaten to Death Chicago. Oct. 12. Three Sunday morning murders gave .Chicago de tectives more mysteries to solve in addition to the unexplained death of E. H. Purcell, two weeks ago.

His"-ictims were Antonio D. Brizzolara, Italian, pro prietor of a fruit stand, and Isador G an sky, owner of a small tailor shop.

Widow, Love Philosopher, Finds All Men Mormons and Divorce Quite Right Alma's "Cuddle Up" Letters to Publisher Get to Court And Cost Him His Wife; "Theories Beautiful," Says One Letter, "But the Grand Old Institution of Marriage Has Stood the Test of Time." Los Angeles. Oct 12. A philoso pher came into Judge Taftls divorce court by letter, signing herself "Alma, Your Philosopher." Her writ ings on marriage and on love cost Lee A. Phillips, formerly head of a large printing company here, his wife, for the court granted Mrs. Laura E. Phillips, a divorce on the ground of desertion. Phillips did not contest. "Ainu, the Philosopher," wrote unusual letters, the court said. Wed Often as Necessary. One letter ran: "Theories, are beautiful to reflect upon, but this grand old institution cf marriage has stood the test of time. Divorce should be made easier that's all. I believe in . six marriages if that many be necessary before the right mate is found. "Ceremonies ' do not make mar riage, but they give the union a sacredness. It means that two peo ple art; i-onest in their intentions to fulfil' their vows, regardless of what may afterwards follow. Dis illusionment may .follow, but they meant what they" promised at the time. "Is not this better than simply living with one and then another, hoping perhaps you -might strike the right one; to mate as the ani mals mate, without one thought of the Divine?" And then she wrote again: Being Demagnetized. "Nature, my dear Phil, made you a lover. You can't help wanting to cuddle up to some sweet, appealing woman. But with all your clever-J; ness, I am surprised that you have not discovered that you have not discovered a certain natural law, namely, that people are quickly de magnetized. Even kissing can be overdone and aversion follow. "I think that half the marriages turn out disastrously from that very thing. It's mighty hard to practice self-restraint wheji one has an affec tionate disposition, but I know that it is necessary." From another letter came this: "I am a human being and a widow, therefore I never claim that I could withstand temptation under all cir tumstances. But it would have to be a case of being swept off my feet, not deliberate planning. "I do not condone your offenses. I have overlooked because you avow openly what other men do and think secretly. If you had not dropped your ideals you would have appre ciated me when I came along. "That's the trouble with you men you imagine that you do not care for a girl unless there is red-hot pas sion, the very worst foundation for marriage. Of course, there is not love without passion, nor is it de sirable, but a calm, steady devotion, respect and a liking for each other's company, mental and moral resem-blances-as I put it, a mental com bination, physical and moral must exist if we would have the happy marriage. " 'Hang marriage,' you say. Grant- (Contlnnnl on Pace Two, Column Seven.) DOCTORS, THEATER, OYSTERS, TOBACCO, TABOO IN HON CITY Neither May One Swear, Use Drugs, Dance or Eat Pork in Chicago Environ.
